:eek: their cant kill honey that would be so wrong.....how cruel
Has she been axed to make way for Janine coming back?
well her character had just run out of ideas i dont think this has got anything to do with janine
i have my suspicions :hmm:
Janine and Billy wouldn't make a very good couple in my opinion...a bad, bad decision to axe Honey. :( What were the producers thinking?! I wanted her and Billy to stay on the Square for years to come, seeing them cope with the upbringing of their children.
they already did the whole Janine/Billy thing so I don't think they will do it again... Can't see Janine taking over the mammy role if Honey goes aloneQuote:

She's bound to find out somewhere along the line, but I don't see her leaving the square over it; it's just pathetic, and it would be really hard on the kids, especially with Janet having down's.
I don't see Billy and Janine happening. It's been done, and it's clear she's only interested in money. It was clear enough because she ditched Billy when the money he got from blackmailing Ian ran out, and then she actually married Barry for money. Janine isn't the mother type either, especially not the type that would have the patience to give Janet the extra care that she needs. Has it actually been confirmed that Janine's coming back full time? I thought she was only coming back for Frank's funeral, and that's been and gone.
She will be back for about a year.
How long now till she comes back??
EastEnders star Emma Barton has admitted that she felt "gutted" to be axed from the show.
The actress, who joined the BBC One soap in 2005, was told in April that her character Honey Mitchell would be written out. She filmed her final scenes for the programme a few weeks ago.
Barton told The People: "I was gutted when they told me. I know that's the nature of the job and nothing is forever but I didn't want it to end so soon."
Emma also complained that her exit is being seen as a minor event in comparison to the death of the show's long-standing dog Wellard.
She admitted: "I can't believe I've been upstaged by a dog dying."
The soap star does not have any work booked until December, when she will play Snow White in a Christmas panto. She has confirmed that she is "up for anything", but hopes to reprise her career as a musical theatre performer.
Meanwhile, Perry Fenwick, who plays Honey's husband Billy, has voiced his disapproval of the decision to axe Barton.
"They said the character had come to a natural end but what does that mean? It's gutting for Billy and for me," he explained. "I'll really miss Emma. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy where I am but I do wonder what's next for my character."
noooo, did Letitia Dean not teach you anything?! you can't do panto and win Strictly at the same time! :lol:Quote:

i read in a soap magazine that shw leaves and takes the kids after finding out about billy's involvement in everything with jay, she finds money or something
yh she takes the kids, and just leaves in the back of a taxi i think
Aw that is so awfull. Billy will be gutted.:sick: :thumbsdow
I can't believe that; I think she'd at least give Billy the chance to explain. It just doesn't seem true to the character at all; very poor exit. I feel so sorry for Emma.
Noooooo!
Why do this to Billy!!
Emma Barton was gutted over being axed as Eastenders Honey but she does get out alive. In heartbreaking scenes she will take the kids and leave Billy after she finds out he was involved in Jases's death and is hiding blood money for the crime gone wrong.

So it looks like EE have no plans to continue the down syndrome story then.
Maybe Janet will return in years to come. Would have been good to see how the family coped with the upbringing of Janet and William having no money and that. But who knows.
So Jase dies? I did not know that.
arrgghh poor billy :crying:

something to do with his old gang, billy gets pulled in to it somehow, apparently he was only supposed to be short term and his death will create more stories for jay and dawn, boo
So Jase dies?
Poor Jay and Dawn.
Billy you idiot :angry:
I don't like the character much at the moment, and this is just going to make him worse. I didn't see him finding love again after Little Mo, and now that he has two kids and does something like this, I don't think he ever will again. I can see Perry being axed too before long; going out labelled a psycho like the rest of the Mitchell men. Funny way they've got of repaying Perry's loyalty to the show all these years - ruining his character.
I didn't either! Was that kept pretty quiet or did I just miss it :lol:Quote:

Well it doesn't seem fair. Honey deserves a good exit.
What natural end? Billy and Honey were happy after everything they went through trying to get married, Janet having down's and needing a heart operation, struggling to make ends meet.. there's nothing natural about this end where Billy's character is concerned; totally out of character. Billy came to his end ages ago, but they kept finding things to do with the character, some of which were just completely boring. Black cab exit might not be sensational but the character deserved to walk off into the sunset with her family.
I wouldn't have blamed Perry if he quit in protest, and avoided this happening to him at a later date. I can see it now.
I didn't know Jase was dying either... but oh well, he was one that was on my hitlist. :p :lol:
I am sad to see Honey go though.. there's no point in her leaving and I wanted to see the down's syndrome storyline continue as Janet grew up! .. oh well, at least Honey won't be dying..
Im glad Jase is going out of it, I find him really boring and have never took to his character what so ever. Same with Jay.
that has always really bugged me about billy and honey never having any money, in real life they would of been given a council house, and they would be claiming disability benefit for janet :hmm:Quote:

(contributing to how they ended up homeless) i thought that was a very irresponsible thing for the BBC to do myself, they just seemed to get a letter and no assistance or advice- which isn't what happens in real life. i was also amazed that Billy and Honey just seemed to accept it, there's being a benefits scrounger and there's doing what you can to look after your kids when you are in desperate circumstances!Quote:
